First Attempt of St. Honoré

After my visit to Antoinette patisserie shop, I have been inspired to make the 1/12 dollhouse miniature scale St. Honoré pastry. It must be the pink colour. Their version was a lovely lovely sweetest shade of pink, almost like a lip gloss pink, which just made me smile.

I slowly started off making the bases, and then the tiny profiteroles.

This was my first dollhouse miniatures version. I was pretty pleased with it. I like this pink, but it wasn't the pink I was envisioning so I will save it for another later batch. And I'm actually thinking, how many types of pink do I want? We'll see...

So when I made the next batch, I spent some time mixing the pink colour. I failed in my first colour mix because it was too transparent. I whipped up the next pink colour and finally found the right shade. I might go another 1-2 shades even darker sometime later...

Oh wow sweet pei li, i think your Marie Antoinette Saint Honoré Dessert turn out really sweet and yummie! Just so beautiful! Makes me want to have a dollhouse bakery and cafe setting for my new toy! :) Have a lovely merry happy day and love to you!
